The heart of a parish is the Eucharist, but the parish family is the body that makes it a special and strong community with an exciting parish life. St. Padre Pio Parish offers a variety of ways to get involved and be part of that communal family in addition to the celebration of the sacraments.

• Spiritual Life Ministries are a vital element of the Catholic life as we grow in knowledge and understanding of our faith in Jesus Christ and the Church he gave us. A deeper understanding can lead to a more intimate relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and through the Trinity to the Church and our family, friends, neighbors, parish, and community. Such faith formation is for all of us as we grow as Catholics.
• Another way to participate in our parish life are the various parish Liturgical Ministries, such as choir member, lector, altar server, and extraordinary ministers of care, such as giving communion to the homebound, serving the poor, or assisting in catechism on Monday nights.
• St. Padre Pio also has many vibrant Groups & Organizations. You can volunteer to be a part of the Knights of Columbus, our Women’s and Men’s clubs, aour Pro Life Committe, and many more.
• With so many ways to be part of parish life, you'll want to stay informed by regularly reading the weekly Parish Bulletin just in case you've misplaced the one you received at Mass.
• You’ll also want to check the Parish Calendar for a list of our many events and activites.
• We hope you'll also enjoy viewing photos of our parish on our Photo Gallery page, including some of the many memorable events and programs we've had over the years.
  
  

God calls us to use our gifts and talents to glorify Him and make life better for other people. Please consider these opportunities for getting involved in our parish. And if you have an idea for a new parish ministry, group, club or activity, please contact the Parish Office.

God Bless Us All!
